Right before his brain surgery last week, Bad Brains frontman H.R. was interviewed by Loudwire, where he stated that he hopes to return to the stage with the band for a tour later this year. He stated:

“I was talking with the bass player and we were looking at the fall, in autumn, maybe. We’ll do some rehearsals, rehearsing a setlist that they had wanted to play and I decided to go ahead and play it with them. Darryl had come to me through the telephone and said, ‘I’m committed to you,’ and I said, ‘Well, I’m committed to you.'”

A benefit concert for Bad Brains guitarist Dr. Know will be held on July 23rd at Tompkins Square Park in New York City to raise awareness of the plight of the legendary member of Bad Brains, who has had some issues in over the last seven months. Sponsored by Black N’ Blue Productions and NYHC Chronicles, the benefit include performances from Breakdown, Token Entry, The Cro-Mags, Antidote and Maximum Penalty, and attendees will be able to support Dr. Know’s Go Fund Me campaign on-site at a station that will be accepting donations.

Dr. Know was hospitalizedlast November for cardiac arrest, and the band launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise money in order to pay for his medical bills. He is not the only member of Bad Brains to be dealing with health issues. Last March, Bad Brains frontman H.R. was suffered from a rare neurobiological disorder.

Bad Brains recorded a new EP in New York in May of last year, with frontman H.R. not participating, and as early as 2014, they were in the studio working on what appears to be the follow-up to 2012’s Into the Future. We’ll keep you posted as more details on new music from Bad Brains come to light.

Bad Brains frontman H.R. has been suffering from a rare neurobiological disorder. The condition is said to be worsening with H.R. having to take several trips to the E.R., where the was diagnosed with a rare type of headache called SUNCT, a trigeminal neuralgia that is similar to cluster headaches. H.R.’s wife, Lori, issued the following statement:

“I am HR’s caregiver. He has a neurobiological disorder and has also had severe headaches for years. The headaches have gotten progressively worse; in November, he began living with almost constant pain. He has been diagnosed with a rare type of headache called SUNCT, a trigeminal neuralgia that is similar to cluster headaches. There is no known cure and no reliable medical treatment. To give you an idea of what he’s dealing with, cluster headaches are nicknamed ‘Suicide Syndrome’. The headaches come randomly, with no warning, at all hours of the day and night; but for him, they are much worse at night. The intensity of the nighttime headaches is so great that he yells, cries out, groans, and sobs—repeatedly, every few minutes, for most of the night. He can’t work. He has no quality of life. If you call him and ask how he is, he will say, ‘Everything’s okay,’ because that’s just how he is. But everything is not okay.

We’ve been consulting doctors for the past few years, and have uncovered several health issues that we were able to address and overcome. But these headaches… In the past six months, he’s been to the emergency room twice, had an overnight in the hospital, has seen two neurologists, and so far he has a diagnosis and found a pain medication that worked well for a while but is not safe to take long-term—so it’s two steps forward, three steps back. He has an appointment in early May at a Headache Center–not fully covered by health insurance–where we hope to find someone with experience with this type of headache. He’s on a cocktail of pharmaceuticals that scares me. He has lost weight, with visible muscle wasting.

As a clinical herbalist, you can be sure that I have also been tapping into my extensive knowledge of natural medicine. Nothing is working YET. I know what we need to try next, including acupuncture and some herbal preparations, however we can’t manage the costs of these treatments.

I am a full-time caregiver. I work a full-time retail management job with varying shifts. I manage HR’s calendar and business as best as I can. I’ve been trying really hard to work on extra projects to bring in some extra money (very slow going). I take care of the apartment, the car, the bills, HR’s doctor appointments, everything. I do all of the things. And now I can’t sleep because my husband is crying out in pain all night. On top of the physical stress of shift work and not getting enough sleep, the emotional and psychological stress of watching him be in pain and not being able to do a damn thing about it is wearing me down. He needs me to be around more and he needs me to be at my best. I can’t do this alone anymore. We need your help.

Thank you for anything you can do to help HR regain his health–and his life.”

As you may recall, last November, Bad Brains guitarist Dr. Know was hospitalized and put on life support. This time, the band released a statement on their Facebook page, stating that they have launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise money in order to pay for Dr Know’s medical bills. They write:

“As many of you know, Gary Miller (aka Dr. Know or Doc), guitarist of the Legendary Washington DC punk band Bad Brains, suffered cardiac arrest in early November last year. His condition quickly progressed to multiple organ failure, and he was on life support for almost 2 weeks. At the time, his doctors gave him a 5% chance of survival. But by the power of PMA, LOVE and FAMILY, he was able to pull through and survive.

We started this campaign in an effort to raise money for Doc’s medical expenses and additional care that will be needed once he returns home.

Although it was recently announced that there were no plans for a reunion, crossover legends S.O.D. ― the crossover supergroup featuring Billy Milano (M.O.D.), Nuclear Assault bassist Danny Lilker and his former bandmates in Anthrax Scott Ian and Charlie Benante ― will release a 30th anniversary edition of their iconic debut album Speak English or Die on November 27th through Megaforce Records. The reissue will include the original album and the demo recordings from the pre-S.O.D. project Crab Society North.

Released in 1985, both Speak English or Die and the S.O.D. project were conceived after Scott Ian and Charlie Benante’s main band Anthrax finished recording their second album Spreading the Disease, which was released that same year. It was Ian who drew the face of the band’s iconic character Sargent D.

Despite rumors from last July, Nuclear Assault bassist Dan Lilker revealed to Horns Up that there are no plans to reunite S.O.D. ― the crossover supergroup featuring himself, Billy Milano (M.O.D.) and his former bandmates in Anthrax Scott Ian and Charlie Benante ― for a 30th anniversary celebration of their iconic debut album Speak English or Die. He explains:

“I know there’s gonna be a reissue, but him talking about a live show is all a little premature, let’s say. It’s gonna be the 30th anniversary of ‘Speak English or Die’, so there’s gonna be yet another reissue. I say it with a slight air of cynicism. And, yeah, it’ll be cool. Billy might have made it seem like, but he didn’t consult anybody else that played in S.O.D. He just kind of announced something, and we went, ‘Huh?’ That’s what happened.”

Asked if he would do the S.O.D. reunion show if everyone else agreed to it, Lilker replied: “Yeah. I don’t have any differences with anybody. It was never me. I would do it as long as I didn’t have any other previous plans on that day. If anything else I have already confirmed is confirmed, I wouldn’t do it, but if they say, ‘Hey, what are you doing July blah blah blah this year,’ I’d go, ‘Okay. Fine.'”

Billy Milano also commented on the reunion situation, telling Blabbermouth.net, “all the members of SOD were contacted via email to contribute to a 30 year anniversary edition package by Missi from MEGAFORCE who is one of the honest people still in this dying industry. She also mentioned in her e-mail that it would be fun to have a show to celebrate it. To my surprise everyone including myself replied that fun sounds like fun. I went to NYC to visit family and friends and was asked to be interviewd on Jimmy Gestapos Radio show. His buddy Mike is the co host of the show and owns the NYHC black and Blue festival. They asked if I woulkd be interested in playing with SOD. It was the same day I met with Missi from megaforce. I said yes. We announced it giving plenty of time for Charlie and Scott to make it happen. I also went to NY to collect the money Scott and Charlie owe me for covering songs I own publishing on. (HEY JOHN BUSH I HEARD THEY DIDNT PAY YOU EITHER! I TRIED TO WARN YOU BUT HEY I’M THE BAD GUY) IT didnt happen so in my mind I called the shows off 3 days later. I also had the shows based as a benefit, I wanted to help a couple of Dog rescue groups I follow on facebook. Second chance rescue in ny and a Tonkers rescue group. This way the band didnt have a reunion for money and it actually helps someone and adds to the good karma of the music scene. Charlie Benante said why does it have to be a benefit we can make a lot of money. Ok, so at this point SOD is done, they are trying to talk to me via friends and booking agents and the answer is NO!!!! MOD is finishing a record. I have a new group Billy Be Dammed and I love my life in Austin Texas. and as far as me being right wing, no shit! The days and INSANITY of political correctness is coming to a head… Enjoy the Chaos and Get a gun, Go Mueria! VOTE TRUMP!”

Band Spotlight

If you haven't heard of Hillview yet, they're a new melodic punk band from Los Angeles featuring Ten Foot Pole bassist Chris Del Rio and Eddie Carrasco of Union 13. They recently released three brand new songs titled "Find the Way", "Pictures of You", and "No One Else to Blame".
The band describes their sound as "Hard hitting. In your face. Melodic Punk", and these songs definitely deliver on that promise. Think a little heavier, faster Ten Foot Pole... I recommend giving all three tracks a listen here.
